NEW DIX IoUH,
Does Honest John Sherman con.
graduate himself because Brother
Blaine is going for time to be a
pilgrim and stranger? Does he
think that competition in the boom
line will be less fierce during the
absence of the principal man in the
business? If he does, there Is
where Honest John makes his mis-
take. Brother Blaine is aware, if
The great Pinkstonian statesman is
not, that absence makes the heart
grow fonder.

The Cabinet Reconstruction Talk

There are indications that President Cleve-
land has tue reconstructi0n of his cabinet
again under consideration. 1t is limited that
the transfer of Secretary Lamar to the
Supr, me bench may give the President an
opportunity to get rid of two or three other
members of his cabinet whose continuance
in their present position he feels will not be
of special service to him in the campaign be
hopes To make for reelection next year 1t
il suggested that if Mr. Bsyard should give
way to some democrat whose sympathies with
the United States are more strong than for
Great Britain, that the attitude of the sd
mlnistrstion on the fishery question might be
forgotten and rgiveD; that Mr. Endicott's
resignation might be accepted by the country
as an stonement for the battle-fag blunder-
tn call II by no worse name; and as for the
Pan Electric attorney general it is claimed
that he must in some way be made to GO, if
the administration is to ask an Endorsement
of the country. We incline though to the
belief that however much the President NAV
wish to get rid of these members o! his Off l..
cial family, he will hesitate long before he
makes any attempt in this direction. 1t
NAV be desirable in some respects to make
next years canvass without them, but there
will be dissdva ntages also In the case. These
three gentlemen are not destitute of friends,
and they and their friends will have it in
their power to make matters extremely un-
comfortable for the President if they choose.
The more the President thinks Of it the more
likely he is TO come to the conclusion that it
will not pay to force cabinet changes and go
into the scspegost business Just at the
present time. II is too near 1888 to do this.

WONDERFUL GOLD FIELDS.
south Africa Yielding Up Her
Treasure.

WASHINGTON, March 9.-vioe Consul
knight reports to the Department Of
State concerning the Transvaal gold fields
that the wonderful Shelbs reef has been
collapsed by another reef discovery last
Summer and known as the Thomas Reef,
from which samples Of quartz weighing
5000 pounds. ID 10 claimed, yielded forty
eight ounces OF gold. These discoveries
naturally gave an impetus TO prospecting
on q large scale, resulting in the discover
les OF marvelously extensive and rich gold
quartz veins.
The Vice Consul says that he believes,
after making inquiries, and from the best
information o~btainable, that the Transvaal
fields. when fully developed. will prove
among the richest In the world. The
recent discoveries have naturally given
rise to no end Of speculation and mining
ventures, and q great rush of capitalists,
miners and adventurers has set in. Near
Shelba Reef q city - Barberton has
sprung up as il by magic. numbering al
ready 1000 to 5000 people. and is rapidly
increasing. The report concludes by eau
tioning persons without means not to
venture into the gold country. unless they
be thoroughly practical miners, as the
existing are very hard. and
many will be doomed to bitter disappoint.
